"We will help Jack do it," Alice said."But-""I am not finished," Alice interrupted Jack. "We will help you write the reports and then you can submit that one to Sandra. And you can still continue to work and write reports of the ones we helped you with and then you can later submit that to us. We won't set any time limits and you can freely do the work and it won't even look like you skipped your responsibility," Alice explained."But what will we do of those reports that Jack will give us?" Stefen asked."I don't know, maybe make paper aero planes and fly them from the balcony," Alice was confused too.Jack laughed hearing her."The idea that Alice gave isn't so bad. In fact it is excellent. Jack, you have to agree," Stefen tried convincing Jack.Jack thought for a while but what Alice said was beneficial in every way. He will still get to complete his whole task and Sandra won't throw any tantrums at him as well. "Okay," he agreed."Okay then, I and Stefen will help you write the r
"His own mother hasn't visited him, even once?" Stefen could not believe that."Yes." Mr. William replied."Are you sure dad?""Yes, Stef. My people worked very hard to find those information. I even called the respective officer to assure that and my men were correct. Kevin has never had any kind of contacts with the anyone.""That's impossible. He was the only one capable of doing this grubby thing. Who else could that be?""Don't you worry, I have men on run. They will always be around you all but they won't make it obvious, so you guys need not feel like someone's invading your privacy. They will guard you all.""I guess that is best precaution we can take for now." Stefen was dispirited, he went into his deep thought. "Dad?""Yeah.""I just got another brilliant idea, and I will still be needing your help for that," Stefen smiled after long hours."And that is?""Jesus, why didn't I think of this before. We can trace the phone number from which that anonymous message was sent. We
It was Stefen's dad who helped Alison's dad's business to get back on its feet and they have been good friends ever since. Mr. William still helps Alison's father and shares his knowledge about the business world.Jasmine did not feel good seeing Stefen and Alison so close. She had feelings for Stefen that she could no longer deny, he was growing on her and therefore even the slightest action had a big effect."What happened, didn't you go to fill your water bottle? Why did you come back carrying the empty one again?" Jack asked as he saw Jasmine walking inside the department."Huh?" Jasmine was knocked back to reality after hearing Jack. She looked at her water bottle and saw it empty. She had completely forgotten about it."Hello Jazz, you there?" Jack waved his hand in front of her eyes seeing Jasmine lost again."Huh?" Jasmine asked."Forget it, I will bring the water. You go and sit," Jack took the water bottle from Jasmine's hand and exited the department.***"I can feel you Ali
It was their lunch hour and Stefen was not in his department as said by Alice. So, Jack, Jasmine and Alice went straight to the canteen without waiting for Stefen. They entered the canteen and Jack looked around with the hope of finding Stefen. But, he was not there. And to his surprise even Alison was nowhere to be seen.Did Stefen agree to go out with Alison? Jack thought.They were walking towards the queue to take there food when a familiar voice took all of their names serially from afar."J, Jazz, Alice?" Stefen came running from the canteen door with paper bags in his hand. He stopped in front of them, catching his breathe."What's that?" Alice asked pointing towards the paper bag. Jasmine and Jack did not speak."Oh these," he raised the bags. "These are our lunch for today," Stefen said still gasping out."How far did you run anyway?" Jack asked."Don't get me started, come let's go and eat them," Stefen squeezed his stomach."Okay," Jack agreed and and they all walked towards
Yes. Jasmine's heart shouted but it's sad no one could hear that. "Oh," she tried to maintain her calm. "Next week right?" Stefen nodded as he crossed his fingers under the table hoping for a positive answer. Jasmine pretended to think and after a long pause she spoke, "What about the work?" she was trying to behave as normal as she could at that point. "Holiday." Jasmine nodded pretending to understand "Okay then." Stefen had a wide smile on his face that stretched from ear to ear. "Okay." he joined his palms. "Let's go before Sandra comes and tells us to leave. It's almost time now, the break will be over soon," Jasmine said and walked away immediately. She was afraid she might over-react. Stefen followed her with a big grin on his face and so did the other two. Just before Alice was about to enter her department, Jack called her. "Alice?" She turned around. "What happened?" she asked. "Actually even I have something that I wanted to tell you," he said. "Okay, go on." "Y
Alison sighed listening Jack act that way, "start," She signed him to begin. "One, Stefen is my friend and I know you way too well to let you try to fool him just the you did to me for one whole year. Two, I know you don't love him and you are using him to try and fulfill one of your gluttonous needs. Three, Stefen loves someone else. Four, I hate you. Five, I loathe you. Six, I detest you. Seven, I execrate you. Eight, I abominate you. Nine, I despise you. Ten, I abhor you. You want me to continue or is this much reason enough to destroy your self-esteem?" Alison did not reply. She had fire flaming in her eyes. She was deeply affected with everything he said. She just stamped her feet on the ground and walked away. Jack turned around to see if Alice was somewhere around but she was not there. He went back with disappointment in his heart. *** Everyone were having their dinner. They thought of ordering pizzas instead of cooking since that would save them time and they can focus on
"You already know he was a bad boy plus and a smart one as well and you should know how that combo works plus he always had a thing for Alice. Why do you think no one ever asked Alice out during our time in the university?""What?" everything sounded new to Jack except for the names."Of course you wouldn't know that. You were busy acting the role of a playboy the whole time. I doubt you even noticed her," Stefen said.Jack thought that deeply. Stefen was right. After breaking up with Alison he had created a new world for himself where girls were after him and except for making love, he basically did everything. There wasn't a single popular girl in their university whom Jack did not go out with. Alice stood nowhere near those girls. Then what had changed? Why was he all of a sudden so interested in her. He had once felt that feeling, that was only for Alison and those feelings were rushing back to him again, this time for Alice and this time with more assurance."Alice was never unnot
"About me and Alison and how I chose to become a guy that you loathe just because I wanted to forget her," Jack clarified."Oh that," she paused. "I am not sure actually. I was not there when you and Alison were together, so I can't judge the relationship you had with her. But as far as I have come to know you and as far as I know Alison, I do feel sorry for you. Your love not being reciprocated is already hard..." Alice remembered the time when she loved Stefen. "...but being cheated by the person must be the worst feeling ever," Alice replied."You are not answering my real question," Jack said.Alice raised her eyebrows."I asked you what do you think about me based on the past I had?" He questioned again. Alice thought for a while, "I think that I can't judge you based on the time you once lived. As time passes, people change and so do their feelings," she was answering Jack but somewhere in one corner of her heart, she was justifying her own change of feelings.Alice recalled th
